Waka Flaka Teams Up With Kickstarter to Combat Ebola

Superstar rapper Waka Flaka Flame has partnered with the award-winning impact driven social venture WakaWaka in an effort to fund WakaWaka Base, the world’s first solar power kit.

WakaWaka’s mission is to provide light to those that lack it and in turn aid in the fight against Ebola. Liberia and Sierra Leone are the countries hardest hit with Ebola yet 90% of the residents in these countries lack electricity. WakaWaka will provide solar light to Ebola workers, first responders and families in West Africa for every pledge made towards helping develop this portable solar kit.

The kickstarter is confident that Waka Flaka Flame’s popularity will bring awareness to the campaign and save lives.

“This simple yet brilliant idea can literally bring people out of the dark in parts of the world that are indeed suffering,” said Waka Flocka Flame. “Join me in celebrating the type of innovation that helps change lives for the better. If you’re down with Waka Flocka, contribute now to WakaWaka!”
